Verse 
 F            D               Gm    C 
The walls of this hotel are paper-thin 
F              D              Gm      C 
Last night I heard you making love to him 
Am            Ab                  C      D 
The struggle mouth to mouth and limb to limb 
Dm            F#m       F        Bm  G 
The grunt of unity when he came in 
F                          Bb 
I stood there with my ear against the wall 
F                     Bb 
I was not seized by jealousy at all 

 
F                        Gm 
In fact a burden lifted from my soul 
C                            F           Dm 
I heard that love was out of my control 
F                      Gm 
A heavy burden lifted from my soul 
C                             F    Dm 
I heard that love was out of my control 

Verse 
F           D             Gm      C 
I listened to your kisses at the door 
F          D                Gm      C 
I never heard the world so clear before 
Am                         C         D 
You ran your bath and you began to sing 
Dm        C#       F#m     F         G 
I felt so good I couldn't feel a thing 
F                          Bb 
I stood there with my ear against the wall 
F            C              Bb 
I was not seized by jealousy at all 


F                        Gm 
In fact a burden lifted from my soul 
C                             F     Dm 
I heard that love was out of my control 
F                      Gm 
A heavy burden lifted from my soul 
C                            F    Dm     F Dm Gm C 
I heard that love was out of my control 

Gm C 

Verse 
F               D        Gm           C 
And I can't wait to tell you to your face 
F            D               Gm      C 
And I can't wait for you to take my place 
F                      Gm 
You are The Naked Angel In My Heart 
F                          Gm 
You are The Woman With Her Legs Apart 

 
F                            Gm 
It's written on the walls of this hotel 
C                            F 
You go to heaven once you've been to hell 
Gm C F                     Gm 
     A heavy burden lifted from my soul 
C 
I heard that love was out of my control
